Why not *jeraþûsundi? Hundahund means "hundreds' hundred", but also 
can be interpreted as "dogs' hundred" :)

Afar Xristu (acc.). Maybe gabauranamma (dat.), gabauranana (acc.) 
should be added. But this is facultative.

Ostrogoth PNs where he states that Matesuintha is actually 
Mahtiswinþa (and not Maþaswinþa). Want me to quote him on that (its 
in German though).

Couldn't it also be *Mati-swinþa?
